  • Lyrics (counter melody in brackets):
     
    Are you going to Scarborough Fair:
  • Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme.
    Remember me to one who lives there
    She was once a true love of mine.
  •  
    Tell her to make me a cambric shirt:
    (On the side of a hill in the deep forest green)
  • Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme.
    (Tracing of sparrow on snowcrested brown.)
    Without no seams nor needle work
  • (Blankets and bedclothes the child of the mountain)
    Then she'll be a true love of mine.
    (Sleeps unaware of the clarion call.)
  •  
    Tell her to find me an acre of land:
    (On the side of a hill a sprinkling of leaves)
  • Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme.
    (Washes the grave with silvery tears.)
    Between the salt water and the sea strands,
  • (A soldier cleans and polishes a gun.)
    Then she'll be a true love of mine.
     
  • Tell her to reap it with a sickle of leather:
    (War bellows blazing in scarlet battalions)
    Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme.
  • (Generals order their soldiers to kill.)
    And gather it all in a bunch of heather
    (And to fight for a cause they've long ago forgotten.)
  • Then she'll be a true love of mine.
     
    Are you going to Scarborough Fair:
  • Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme.
    Remember me to one who lives there
    She was once a true love of mine.

    places the *. Not important but makes a little more beautiful...

    the notation is the same though I haven't used all...
